October (Seasonal Food)

OCTOBER is here!!!! BOOM! That time of the year, where the wind is blowing, leaves are falling and we’re getting the first frosts! Personally this is my favourite time of the year, with it’s particularly wild feel about it, and nostalgic reminders of conkers on the

playground at school, wild seas with huge waves crashing against breakwaters and Halloween! On a side note if you’ve never played “Conkers” then you’ve missed out!! So here is how to play! Get involved!!

“Nature now spreads around in dreary hueA pall cover all that summer knew”

As for food!! CORRR!! We’re getting some gorgeous things coming in! The Gameis full in swing now with pheasant and woodcocks and many of birds in plenty! If you’re so inclined grey squirrel is also great to have now! Wild Mushrooms are in again this month as they are fully grown and brimming with flavour! YES and my favourite bit Squash and Pumpkins are at there peak now! Full of flavour and taste!! Maybe hold with the “Jack O’Lantern” this year and enjoy this wonderful produce and what flavour it brings!!

So here it is, the list this month to awesome, nutrient dense, and more affordable choices!
